It’s taken me some time, but I am so excited to finally share Allie, Delanie, and Taylor’s portrait session. A while back, their mom’s decided to schedule a portrait session for the three girls to surprise their parents (the girls’ grandparents) with pictures. There are so many reasons why Taylor, Delanie, and Allie’s portrait session is one of my absolute favorites!

That cousin/sibling/best friend bond
Cousins make the best friends, am i right? That was certainly true when I was a kid, and now as a thirty-something, my cousins are still near and dear to my heart! It’s something incredibly special that deserves documenting and celebrating!
Capture a moment in time
Nothing earth shattering over here in my telling you that photographs capture a moment in time, but it bears repeating. Just think about it. Your child’s age, that they’ll never be again. Their precious relationship with their cousins and best friends. You’ll never tire of going back and looking at these images and I promise you, they will only get sweeter with time.
Grandparent gifts
Prints from this session were given to grandparents as their anniversary gift. Isn’t that incredibly sweet? Grandparents can never get enough of their grandchildren and love to show off pictures of them to all of their friends.

Take a stroll through some of my very favorites from their portrait session at Lake Quannapowitt in Wakefield, MA. This area can tend to be overcrowded, but we found all the right spots to capture that glowy sunset, those spring flowers, and that post sunset hue.

Be sure to leave some love for the girls in the comment section below!

Sometimes things just fall into place. When I was first asked to capture Beckee and Robbie's wedding at the lake in Wakefield, I had already been booked for a wedding on the Northshore that day. Beckee and her family are good friends of mine, and I've known them for quite some time, so, naturally, I was pretty bummed.

Fast forward a few hours later, and I receive a call from my bride telling me that her wedding would be postponed due to a family emergency. When Beckee found out that I would be available to photograph her wedding, she was ecstatic! (Like, really, I think she used that word.)

We quickly swapped bridal shot ideas and some Pinterest pics and got pretty jazzed up about the whole thing. Fast forward a few days, and it's the day of the wedding!

Beckee and Robbie were united in marriage in front of their family and close friends at Lake Quannapowitt in Wakefield, Massachusetts. Beckee made a gorgeous bride. As a hairstylist and makeup artist for over twenty years, she is really on top of her game. (Check out her beauty blog!) I don't think you need my words to tell you she looked stunning--I mean, just look at the pictures. She even made her bouquet all by herself--like, what??

Beckee's three sons escorted her down the "aisle" where Robbie was waiting with his "best man," his lovely young daughter. Beckee's father, Jack, gave the wedding talk, and even managed to keep a dry eye the entire time.

Afterward the family gathered together for one giant family photo. Can you believe that this is just immediate family? (And that one more has been added to the bunch since then--welcome, baby Brock!) The Beaudoin family is seriously one good-looking group of folks.
